Great vid. I grew up on Hayling. Conditions like that don't happen very often there. So you did well to capture it.

HA!
Thats my local spot.. I've mentioned it before that we have a 700mtr paddle out to the sandbar across a rip channel..
It's a decent little place to SUP, it's quite shallow actually so foiling isn't an option unless you stay in the deeper water where there are no waves..
It's a very long and wide tipped sandbar like a teardrop shape (as most estuary sandbars are) and the better waves come in and wrap around the end of the bar and hook back in along it's lee edge..
You can get almost a 700mtr surf from tip to where the rip channel is.

It's where I use my Flow 8'7, Speeed 8'10 and Shroom 8'3.

Nice vid by a local SUP'er.

I know Hayling bar well as used to wavesail there quite a bit. It is quite a way out to sea which might keep the kooks away.
